I didn't make to the book to store to find a new book to read all day. Did I mention how much I hate shopping?I hope to go tonight on the way back from dinner so then maybe I can read all day tomorrow before we take Toby to see Santa.

My sister in-law, Maria's, birthday is tomorrow and she and her husband (my husband's identical twin) will also be going to the same place for dinner tonight. Totally by coincidence. I think they are going after we'll be there.

Should make for some interesting talk amongst the wait-staff because Paul (my husband) and Patrick look so much alike. I can see them now -- "wait a minute wasn't that guy just here with a blonde girl (me) and now he's here with a pregnant brunette (Maria)!" Should be funny!
